@From the Soil My guy, in America if you make 35,000 a year you're in the top 1% of the WORLD. Realistically, Joe and Nick are in the top 0.1%. Wealth inequality is heavily misunderstood
i feel shrooms bring me closer to nature and makes me think of the life of everything. but acid is very color based and visuals based for me. i see warping and twisting and everyone has a color hue on acid. that's my favorite.
@@jaredsaltus if u ever tripped on acid a few times you would relate to the states of mind and experience he described I was just quietly grinning along ...'hahah yup..I feel u bro'
that's the most grounded and respectable first impression of Burning Man I've seen. It's usually people overplaying the sex and drugs, or new found hippies gushing over the love and acceptance. Cheers Nick!
Truly with such a place, those things are there if you want them. I've already been through the majority of my festival days, so thats not really what I went for(2017, the year a man figured in the fire was the way to go out of this world). They are there, but theres a bit of everything there. As long as you go in with some intention of what youd like from it, theres something there for you. I'm happy Nick got such a positive experience. Its not for everybody, he obviously had a decently leveled mindset going in.
It's so funny how limited any story is because burning man is just at so immensely unbelievably varied, but you can capture the spirit in simple little pieces of the story
LSD feels like a square. Mushrooms feel like a circle. It's the most basic way I've found to describe it to people that haven't experienced the difference.
The ambiguity alone in that statement is pretty great. Sort of like “turn on. Tune in, and drop out”. Has nothing to do with describing the trip but I totally get you.
L is a pure psychedelic. You are on your own, no ground. Mushrooms have a spirit and will help you if you need it, very grounded. More intelligence is required to take l safely.
Nick Kroll is areally down to earth person. My friend had a chance to meet him and had said that he was easy going and enjoyed talking about everything. Plus to me he is severely underrated and absolutely hilarious in every show he's apart of.
It seems a common way to go with us kids that started doing LSD and psilocybin at age 12. You get used to it, or some of us do. SSRI helps dull it down
FYI, there is a DMV (Department of Mutant Vehicles). Art cars are invited to the event and inspected on site. If the vehicle lives up to the design as promised, you get a license to drive your mutant vehicle at Burning Man. If the car includes fire effects, there is another level of inspection before you can receive a license. Controlled chaos.
@@turnbolt11 It is still largely unregulated and out of control. Like a house party. One motto out there is "Safety third". But really, if you're building monstrous flame spewing dragons and jet powered carousels (both of which have actually been there), you're probably going to make damn sure they're about as safe as they can be if thousands of people are gonna be interacting with them.
I’ve watched a lot of videos of people describing acid trips, this is one of the best in my opinion, the way he describes he was thinking is very accurate
I've never taken Acid, always kinda been spooked of it. But I have taken Mushrooms a few times. The first time I tripped, I was 18 years old. Me and some friends went up to this secluded camping spot in the Washington mountains that few people knew about. It was sort of this sacred little space that you really had to work for to find, and it was on a roaring River. Anyhow, we ate a shit ton of Mushrooms as soon as we arrived, totally forgot to build a fire, and started tripping within the hour. It was INTENSE! The only light we had, was from the Moon and the Stars. It really felt like we were floating in Space. And there was this one doorway of light, that made you feel like people were crossing in and out of reality anytime someone walked through it. At one point, we all crammed in a single tent with our laser pointers, and created a light show from the inside. Soon after, somehow the tent became alive and started physically interacting with me. It was rubbing my face, and it was weird, cause I'm still not sure how that's possible. It was a great bonding experience, and I remember becoming aware of the moment, and how these people might not be here one day. Sure enough, 20 years later, and they all got lives of their own now. None of us really communicate anymore. Sad how it all became, but THAT night was easily one of the best nights of my life.
I thought the same thing. "the rich are here to collect", says the famous millionaire, son of billionaire, who stayed at a celebrity camp at Burning Man. He's giving some incorrect information... but I'm glad he went and enjoyed it.
There actually is a DMV at burning man that needs to license your art car before you can take it out. Anything with flame effects has to be carefully inspected, but every art car gets at least a look over for safety, but the safety aspect is implicit in your application approval.
In my experience, putting yourself in total control of your surroundings is key to really having profound epiphanies. Either alone or with 1 person you fully trust, but preferably alone. You control the music, what you watch/do, the topics you choose to contemplate, etc. It's medicinal on that level in terms of really fixing a few negative aspects of your life/really getting you back on track to your personal goals. Ridiculously beneficial if you take a responsible /intelligent dosage.
I agree. The one time I did acid was great, but I had 2 friends who had done it many times before who stayed sober and acted as 'ground control' and guided/talked me through the entire experience and chaperoned the whole night, and that did save me because later In the night a ton of people showed up at my apt to party that did not realize what was going on with me, and my handlers safeguarded me through that. Invaluable. Mushrooms I've done alone and been fine, but that would not be the case on acid.
Eveytime I've dropped LSD i figured out life, why we exist and how everything works. I tried to write it down many times but it didn't make sense when I was sober. I've seen the energy flowing through power lines but What's really cool is when you and a couple friends take the same amount and have a moment where you all see the same thing. We were tripping in my basement one time when I was about 17 me and two of my friends saw the same lamp post wiggle like a snake all at the same time. Nature is always the best setting for a good trip whether you're on mushrooms or LSD
Jimmy King Ya I love going out deep into the woods for a big trip of shrooms or acid .. but walking around the city during day or night tripping balls is fun as hell too
Had group moment on shrooms were 4 of us communicated through telepathy. Freaked us the fuck out and we could never recreate it no matter how hard we tried lol.
Regardless of writing it down, people may read it but, no one will ever expierence what you've experienced. I get what you are saying how you figure everything out but, you figure everything out personally. It's only an answer for your questions. When you understand that and know you can't explain the colors of the rainbow to people who only see in black and white (figuratively speaking) it all makes so much sense. I've tried so hard to explain it all and realized, oh, its really only for me...
@@tripsaplenty1227 I kind of agree, but kind of disagree. I used to sell acid and used to get it from reliable sources, even from old deadheads, who supposedly, emphasis on supposedly found it in an old book and it was acid from the 60s period when you ate it every dose after the first dose just seem to get better and better and I dosed out on six or seven hits of that acid one time. But if I was running a podcast like this and doing all the other stuff Joe does I don't think I'd be trying to megadose acid in the Woods by myself. What, so I could potentially lose my mind and fuck my kids and wife over. Nah, I'll stick with the mushrooms and DMT. Because the most I've ever eaten of acid was 30 hits over the course of 24 hours and it wasn't the strongest acid but it was strong enough to where 4 hits felt like one really good hit of a really good acid and then I've also eaten acid where I ate three hits and felt like the world was caving in on me and it just felt really dark. Good acid for me always seems to give me a positive effect, but there is some bad acid out there that seems to put you in a funky ass headspace no matter how good you're feeling about your life during that moment. Then to realize there's 14 more hours to go depending on the acid. The time that I ate the three hits and felt like the world was caving in on me, I had been tripping out with my friends and we were all going through it thinking that the sun was coming up meaning that the trip was going to be over soon and we were all going to be in a better head space, but then we realized that wasn't the sun it was just the moon and we realize we had a lot longer to go and that was a terrifying experience.😨😨😱😱😵😵😰😰🤕🤕
I actually own the compete series and watch it frequently. I originally watched it on Hulu... I think when it was on Comedy Central it was poorly promoted. I remember the commercials with snippets of Bobby Bottle Service and Publizity (two hilarious elements of the show) and just thinking his characters were just annoying. Outside of the context of the show, they didn't work well in short bursts. When you actually watched the show and realized the brilliant tapestry of faux reality TV he had created, you began to realize how clever and truly funny the show was. Dr Armond is freaking amazing!!!
@Dork Born no you don't. I used to sell acid and have eaten 30 doses over the course of a 24-hour period and had an intimate relationship with it over the course of 45 years. Not once have I or anybody I know had legitimate flashbacks like people talk about. Yes you can have things that will remind you of the trip but nothing will induce the state of mind that was once attained. Saying flashback is the same as the people that say they saw pink elephants man. It's all exaggerations of people who either took fake LSD or didn't take enough. Or and I'm not trying to be insulting have such a low IQ that your brain is mush and produces symptoms that have never been documented before
When I went, I used to describe it as a cross between Mad Max, Alice in Wonderland, and Disneyworld. I guess someone felt the same because there was an actual Thunderdome there.
I know many people that are burners and I'm connected to the West coast transformational festival worlds. I've heard a million stories of the burn. Your description is one of the best and realistic impressions of what burning man means. A free world to be who you are and for others to be themselves without judgment. Where the people police themselves (hence the semi rules and structure) and not have a government or authority tell them what is right or wrong. That's why there are little to no issues or conflicts. Also your description of the rich that come to eat their spoils is spot on. You're a burner now.
Nick listening to my favorite classical musician, Erik Satie, on the playa, while tripping for the first time. Awesome. 3 Gymnopedies must make time stop.
I used to work for the Burning Man setup/ teardown crew. My first year on the crew (2002) I was using the portapotty and someone had scrawled 'Watching Burning Man evolve is like watching your best friend die from cancer...' I was still an enthusiastic newb and thought to myself 'Someday, that'll be my attitude...' 7 years later I had to quit. Or I was fired, still not sure, but it was time to part ways with Burning Man. Glad I did it. Lots of great stories, but you couldn't pay me enough to go back today.
Dave: I'm interested to hear your experience. I don't know the event. Does it become a negative experience because it keeps changing or because it is a once or twice only kind of experience?
It is autobiographical. That is what Nick Kroll experienced in his childhood through a creative lense, it is not meant to serve as an example to live by.
You have absolutely no fucking clue as to who and what Nick Kroll is, dude. You might want to expand your research beyond some bullshit animated Netflix program. He’s not some talented nobody from nowhere. He comes from a family with a $2B net worth.
Joe has spent a LOT of time in big crowds of people. If you have ever done any security work you know what he means by that. It just takes one fool down front to start throwing chairs or beer bottles and suddenly your Grandma beside you thinks she should too. Crowds are their own kind of special beast and can be scary as hell. I try to stay out of those situations.
@@slowpokebr549 Very true, but I think there's such a powerful chill vibe at Burning Man largely because of the immaculate barren desert locale that the risk of the crowd turning ugly, or even one or couple bad apples, is very low. I don't think meth is popular there, at all. The task of just getting there eliminates a lot of the bad intentioned or dangerously adjusted individuals or even the random thugs. Bad shit can happen anywhere, but out there in that amazing open uncluttered undeveloped natural bleakness, it calms the mind & spirit.
There's got to be some tie between LSD and classical music. The only bad trip I had I got out of it by listening to Bach. No reason, just felt like the right thing to do and it worked.
J Bell that is crazy cool. The Beach Boys got me out of a bad trip once. Usually I’ll get stuck listening to one bad. Last time I tripped I couldn’t listen to anything else then Tame Impala. I think regardless music that the lyrics won’t trip you out is a must. For instance I can’t listen to Pink Floyd when I’m tripping even tho everybody always wants to listen to Pink Floyd
I'm exactly the same. Pink Floyd is good but it messes it up when I'm tripping. I think it's because everyone else is all into it. It's totally weird, but I looooove Afropop from the 60s and 70s when I drop. I love it anyway, so maybe that's why lol
No I also feel compelled to try that out. But that sounds like the exact opposite of what I'm used to, which is going deep into the forest with some friends, and taking a portable speaker with us that's playing some modern music like Vibrasphere or Namatjira. Some of that stuff feels like it's specifically written and composed for an acidic forest adventure, it's pretty far out.
My 1st acid trip was going well. My and a buddy, tripping balls at age 17. Then his GF heard we were having fun and couldn't stand it, so she told him she was pregnant and he needed to come over RIGHT NOW. She was lying, of course. But it sure ruined his trip. His mom, an old hippy, drove him over there and on the car ride he told her about the acid. When she came back she put on some classical music and suddenly everything was totally chill. Classical music and fruit is a brilliant suggestion.
The first time I dropped acid was on an airplane, also my first time flying. One of the happiest times of my life. Matter of fact I was happy for months afterward. It changed my perspective on life for the better. Flying through the sky listening to old zeppelin and Pink Floyd albums.
Currency always fascinated me when tripping. It seems so unbelievable that people live and die for these silly pieces of paper but completely ignore how incredible and beautiful our natural surroundings are that seems far more important and valuable.
Its because we are lost as people. Money has turned us into a programmed rat that runs the wheel, ignoring all the natural beauty the Earth offers, all for free. All you have to do is have the time and means to enjoy it, which is the rub, since the only way you will have the time and means to enjoy it is to work hard. Fucking sucks.
@@cestlavegan5793 my half brother is schizophrenic and its the most tragic thing because aside from all the shit that has happened, I can never safely experience psychedelics.
Dosing at burning man was one of my favorite experiences. Total beautiful chaos, people fucking everywhere, insane art, people of all walks in a alien type of land. Absolutely wonderful
Ivan,I mean I can’t speak for others, but my camp had a shower system, many people would run behind the water trucks to get get splashed and get clean, some people came in RVs that have showers and I’m sure many people just didn’t shower or used baby wipes. It’s essentially camping lol. Or do you mean protection wise? Haha
"Did you have to wear a mask?" - soon as he asked that my heart dropped and I quickly checked the date of the video... I still have PTSD from COVID lockdowns

if folks only knew how much inspection goes into the flame affects, you aren't not free to do it until your piece has been inspected and passed. He tells it the impressions well though, and captured the experience overall rather well. good story teller
I went to Burning Man twice about 15 years ago before all the rich people started showing up. The only way to describe it is Mad Max/Halloween/Rave/Pagan Festival/Carnival/Mos Eisley cantina. It is definitely a life experience to see the Man burn with all the people in lit up costumes and mutant vehicles riding around blasting music. Unreal. If you like your life vanilla and regular and basic, don't go.
Desert, mountains, at the Pacific Ocean, caves, never a bad place to drop acid in the 60's. Couple of notable experiences... at a golf course, 2am under a full moon. Everybody started walking around in slow motion on the greens. Seriously man, it seemed like walking on the moon. SCUBA diving Monterey on acid was truly mind blowing.
ahaha I saw him at Burning Man, seriously. It was the end of a crazy day for me with a long shift at my camp, and just going on an adventure with someone I just met at my camp. ended up babysitting someone that had too many shrooms. I was at a camp on esplanade with a bunch of people I had just met at Hardlys, hopped on an artcar and went to the 747 to dance with. It was probably 3/4am. My back was to the entrance but I could feel someone staring at me. I turned around and there he was. Almost certain this was his acid night. I waved and he waved back and he walked away.
Once was tripping and some generic country song came on the shitty little radio we had. But it sounded fucking amazing. Then the singer began to describe everything that was happening around me as it happened. It was nuts. That song went hard.
Took acid with my best friend and meant to watch all 3 Lord of the Rings movies but we never got through the first one because we had to keep pausing it to stare at everything, especially Gandalf’s beard. I would highly recommend it.
There is a DMV, the Department of Mutant Vehicles. One must submit plans for an art car. Then, if you are invited to bring your art car, you still must pass on-site licensing which, among other things, makes sure that your car flame effects are safe and standardized.
In 1962 the British military field tested lsd on a group of there troops to see if they could use lsd as a weapon to incapacitate attacking enemy forces

I just played gta vice city my first time on acid. By play I just stood there and listened to the npc’s walking around and talking. I did that for like 2 hours. Lol
I was at a Dead show at Rich Stadium in '93. My buddies and I split a half sheet between the five of us. Holy fuck! We all had tripped multiple times before, but we still made the rookie mistake of eating more and more, because "they didn't seem to be working," as my buddy Jay said; famous last words lol. Next thing ya know, we were all on 10 hits a piece and it was very potent and clean shit (rainbow pyramids w wings, if my memory serves me correctly). Good lord, to this day I've never been so fucked up. It was nearly 100° that day, not to mention we were in a parking lot. So, we bought snowcones to cool off. Logical choice, right? You'd think. I was so out of it that the concept of eating had escaped me. I ended up just throwing it on the ground, because I had no clue as what to do w it and neither did my buddies. Then we all realize -- almost simultaneously -- the trips were working overtime haha. At this point we headed to the woods to try and regain some normalcy of the world. Nope! We kept getting higher and higher. Then we ran into a guy w a bad eye; other than that, he was the typical middle-aged Deadhead. He asked, "You boy's lost?" We concurred and he took us to this huge canopy that was deeper in the woods. A bunch of children were running around under the tent-like thingy. He said, "We are all on the family trip" -- inferring that the children were dosed too. It totally freaked us out and my friend lost it. Immediately, he ran full throttle in a straight line haha. He must have ran at least another mile deeper into the woods and we didn't see him until the next day. As for us, we got the fuck out of there too. A bunch of crazy shit happened on that hot June day. What an experience. I wouldn't recommend ANYONE eat 10 hits of quality LSD, because shit gets really fucking intense at times. But I will say this, it is a journey that I defiantly don't regret.

He has daddy's money. He's not funny in the slightest outside of the Ruxin role, but I'm sure he's fun to hang out with.
@@jesot fucking ruxin?? You normie. Have you seen the kroll show?
Eveytime I've dropped LSD i figured out life, why we exist and how everything works. I tried to write it down many times but it didn't make sense when I was sober. I've seen the energy flowing through power lines but What's really cool is when you and a couple friends take the same amount and have a moment where you all see the same thing. We were tripping in my basement one time when I was about 17 me and two of my friends saw the same lamp post wiggle like a snake all at the same time. Nature is always the best setting for a good trip whether you're on mushrooms or LSD
You should record your self talking about trying to explain it. But it might still make no sense lol
I totally agree!
Jimmy King Ya I love going out deep into the woods for a big trip of shrooms or acid .. but walking around the city during day or night tripping balls is fun as hell too
Had group moment on shrooms were 4 of us communicated through telepathy.
Freaked us the fuck out and we could never recreate it no matter how hard we tried lol.
Regardless of writing it down, people may read it but, no one will ever expierence what you've experienced. I get what you are saying how you figure everything out but, you figure everything out personally. It's only an answer for your questions. When you understand that and know you can't explain the colors of the rainbow to people who only see in black and white (figuratively speaking) it all makes so much sense. I've tried so hard to explain it all and realized, oh, its really only for me...
Joe "I've only microdosed it" Rogan.
Your picture LOL. Thought there was a hair on my screen
haha same
Lmao
what a pussy. dose up and go to the woods Joe, you won't regret it
@@tripsaplenty1227 I kind of agree, but kind of disagree. I used to sell acid and used to get it from reliable sources, even from old deadheads, who supposedly, emphasis on supposedly found it in an old book and it was acid from the 60s period when you ate it every dose after the first dose just seem to get better and better and I dosed out on six or seven hits of that acid one time. But if I was running a podcast like this and doing all the other stuff Joe does I don't think I'd be trying to megadose acid in the Woods by myself. What, so I could potentially lose my mind and fuck my kids and wife over. Nah, I'll stick with the mushrooms and DMT. Because the most I've ever eaten of acid was 30 hits over the course of 24 hours and it wasn't the strongest acid but it was strong enough to where 4 hits felt like one really good hit of a really good acid and then I've also eaten acid where I ate three hits and felt like the world was caving in on me and it just felt really dark. Good acid for me always seems to give me a positive effect, but there is some bad acid out there that seems to put you in a funky ass headspace no matter how good you're feeling about your life during that moment. Then to realize there's 14 more hours to go depending on the acid. The time that I ate the three hits and felt like the world was caving in on me, I had been tripping out with my friends and we were all going through it thinking that the sun was coming up meaning that the trip was going to be over soon and we were all going to be in a better head space, but then we realized that wasn't the sun it was just the moon and we realize we had a lot longer to go and that was a terrifying experience.😨😨😱😱😵😵😰😰🤕🤕
as much as it seemed a lot of people didnt like kroll show, I loved it and miss it quite a bit! good shit here.
I actually own the compete series and watch it frequently. I originally watched it on Hulu... I think when it was on Comedy Central it was poorly promoted. I remember the commercials with snippets of Bobby Bottle Service and Publizity (two hilarious elements of the show) and just thinking his characters were just annoying. Outside of the context of the show, they didn't work well in short bursts. When you actually watched the show and realized the brilliant tapestry of faux reality TV he had created, you began to realize how clever and truly funny the show was. Dr Armond is freaking amazing!!!
I took acid once shit had me watching my grass grow. That was enough for me lol
Weed Man hey same
Dork Born ....unless you did like half a water bottle worth of acid or there’s no way you’re getting flashbacks that easily
Akash Patel ok albert hofmann
Devin Dachota 💀💀that’s.........extremely dangerous
@Dork Born no you don't. I used to sell acid and have eaten 30 doses over the course of a 24-hour period and had an intimate relationship with it over the course of 45 years. Not once have I or anybody I know had legitimate flashbacks like people talk about. Yes you can have things that will remind you of the trip but nothing will induce the state of mind that was once attained. Saying flashback is the same as the people that say they saw pink elephants man. It's all exaggerations of people who either took fake LSD or didn't take enough. Or and I'm not trying to be insulting have such a low IQ that your brain is mush and produces symptoms that have never been documented before
"the aesthetic the of Burning Man is somewhere between Mad Max, Game of Thrones, and Tron". That's a pretty good description
Gotta throw the obligatory Willy Wonka into the mix as well
When I went, I used to describe it as a cross between Mad Max, Alice in Wonderland, and Disneyworld. I guess someone felt the same because there was an actual Thunderdome there.

123 what’s funny is that when he says that he’s usually wrong.
I think he was thinking of ergot and LSD was first synthesized from ergot alkaloids.
no man! the DMV makes sure that every mutant vehicle passes code and they are very serious about it.
I know many people that are burners and I'm connected to the West coast transformational festival worlds. I've heard a million stories of the burn. Your description is one of the best and realistic impressions of what burning man means. A free world to be who you are and for others to be themselves without judgment. Where the people police themselves (hence the semi rules and structure) and not have a government or authority tell them what is right or wrong. That's why there are little to no issues or conflicts. Also your description of the rich that come to eat their spoils is spot on. You're a burner now.
that t-rex impression is so spot on
I've seen the underlying structure of everything on salvia before..
Nick listening to my favorite classical musician, Erik Satie, on the playa, while tripping for the first time. Awesome. 3 Gymnopedies must make time stop.

I used to work for the Burning Man setup/ teardown crew. My first year on the crew (2002) I was using the portapotty and someone had scrawled 'Watching Burning Man evolve is like watching your best friend die from cancer...' I was still an enthusiastic newb and thought to myself 'Someday, that'll be my attitude...' 7 years later I had to quit. Or I was fired, still not sure, but it was time to part ways with Burning Man. Glad I did it. Lots of great stories, but you couldn't pay me enough to go back today.
Whats the big problem with it nowadays?
Dave: I'm interested to hear your experience. I don't know the event. Does it become a negative experience because it keeps changing or because it is a once or twice only kind of experience?
who is dat?
Annnnnnnd Dave left us hanging....

There is actually a Burning Man DMV for art cars. It’s well regulated for safety.
Beach tripping was pretty spectacular too.
After watching "Big Mouth" on Netflix... I feel like I know Nick Croll since childhood. haha
Meme Alert lol it’s one of the best shows in Netflix. Family guy type of shit but much better
It is autobiographical. That is what Nick Kroll experienced in his childhood through a creative lense, it is not meant to serve as an example to live by.
@Mejo can you give a little context here bud?
FFS I saw him and thought geez this guy looks and sounds like Nick from Big Mouth 🤣🤣🤣
You have absolutely no fucking clue as to who and what Nick Kroll is, dude. You might want to expand your research beyond some bullshit animated Netflix program. He’s not some talented nobody from nowhere. He comes from a family with a $2B net worth.
Who else thinks that the old college roommate Kroll is talking about is John Mulaney?
I think John Mulaney's taken acid before...
Was wondering the same thing. Maybe Mike Birbiglia?
I think it's Birbiglia because Mulaney probably wouldn't fuck up his sobriety like this. But Mike always looks like he is high anyway.
Joe "the potential for things to go haywire is pretty high" Rogan
Joe has spent a LOT of time in big crowds of people. If you have ever done any security work you know what he means by that. It just takes one fool down front to start throwing chairs or beer bottles and suddenly your Grandma beside you thinks she should too. Crowds are their own kind of special beast and can be scary as hell. I try to stay out of those situations.
@@slowpokebr549 Very true, but I think there's such a powerful chill vibe at Burning Man largely because of the immaculate barren desert locale that the risk of the crowd turning ugly, or even one or couple bad apples, is very low. I don't think meth is popular there, at all. The task of just getting there eliminates a lot of the bad intentioned or dangerously adjusted individuals or even the random thugs. Bad shit can happen anywhere, but out there in that amazing open uncluttered undeveloped natural bleakness, it calms the mind & spirit.
There's got to be some tie between LSD and classical music. The only bad trip I had I got out of it by listening to Bach. No reason, just felt like the right thing to do and it worked.
Wow need to try that
J Bell that is crazy cool. The Beach Boys got me out of a bad trip once. Usually I’ll get stuck listening to one bad. Last time I tripped I couldn’t listen to anything else then Tame Impala. I think regardless music that the lyrics won’t trip you out is a must. For instance I can’t listen to Pink Floyd when I’m tripping even tho everybody always wants to listen to Pink Floyd
I'm exactly the same. Pink Floyd is good but it messes it up when I'm tripping. I think it's because everyone else is all into it. It's totally weird, but I looooove Afropop from the 60s and 70s when I drop. I love it anyway, so maybe that's why lol
No I also feel compelled to try that out. But that sounds like the exact opposite of what I'm used to, which is going deep into the forest with some friends, and taking a portable speaker with us that's playing some modern music like Vibrasphere or Namatjira. Some of that stuff feels like it's specifically written and composed for an acidic forest adventure, it's pretty far out.
My 1st acid trip was going well. My and a buddy, tripping balls at age 17. Then his GF heard we were having fun and couldn't stand it, so she told him she was pregnant and he needed to come over RIGHT NOW. She was lying, of course. But it sure ruined his trip. His mom, an old hippy, drove him over there and on the car ride he told her about the acid. When she came back she put on some classical music and suddenly everything was totally chill.
Classical music and fruit is a brilliant suggestion.
The first time I dropped acid was on an airplane, also my first time flying. One of the happiest times of my life. Matter of fact I was happy for months afterward. It changed my perspective on life for the better. Flying through the sky listening to old zeppelin and Pink Floyd albums.
way late, but it is a must to listen to Led zeppelin and Pink Floyd.. It is soothness to the brain when coming down
Currency always fascinated me when tripping.
It seems so unbelievable that people live and die for these silly pieces of paper but completely ignore how incredible and beautiful our natural surroundings are that seems far more important and valuable.
Its because we are lost as people. Money has turned us into a programmed rat that runs the wheel, ignoring all the natural beauty the Earth offers, all for free. All you have to do is have the time and means to enjoy it, which is the rub, since the only way you will have the time and means to enjoy it is to work hard. Fucking sucks.
My first time doing acid I was listening to the Beatles and eating ice cream
I work changing power lines now so I guess it’s been pretty good
I saw that documentary about people fixing high voltage lines from a helicopter. I always have thought that looked really cool.
I ate beatles and listened to ice cream
@Ickey Hamilton go get a clue. LSD can be one of the most mind expanding experiences you can ever have.
That's awesome. My first time was listening to pink floyd eating oranges :)
Psychedelics got me goin krazy
It's lit
You think Travis is actually taking acid or shrooms? I don't.
Took some last month, still recovering
No one should leave this world without trying LSD25

Everyone should be forced to dose at least once. 😉
Eating fruit on LSD is amazing!!!
You gotta leave
I am almost 40 and I still trip shrooms and go on a bike ride at least twice a year and it's always been amazing.
"The Life and times of Tim" guy! lmao Hilarious show
Always interesting listening to someone go on, and on, about their trip...especially one as interesting as this. /s
Dosing at burning man was one of my favorite experiences. Total beautiful chaos, people fucking everywhere, insane art, people of all walks in a alien type of land. Absolutely wonderful
Mariahr Fordays how do people keep themselves clean enough at burning man to have sex?
Ivan,I mean I can’t speak for others, but my camp had a shower system, many people would run behind the water trucks to get get splashed and get clean, some people came in RVs that have showers and I’m sure many people just didn’t shower or used baby wipes. It’s essentially camping lol.
Or do you mean protection wise? Haha

The department of mutant vehicles is the Burningman DMV for art cars.
I went to Burning Man twice about 15 years ago before all the rich people started showing up. The only way to describe it is Mad Max/Halloween/Rave/Pagan Festival/Carnival/Mos Eisley cantina. It is definitely a life experience to see the Man burn with all the people in lit up costumes and mutant vehicles riding around blasting music. Unreal. If you like your life vanilla and regular and basic, don't go.
How about an authentic sincere meaningful life that I can be proud of before the World?
@@andyokus5735 What are you suggesting?
Joe "drug related comment taken from video" Rogan
Joe ‘’Only Talk About How Good Weed is” Rogan
Desert, mountains, at the Pacific Ocean, caves, never a bad place to drop acid in the 60's. Couple of notable experiences... at a golf course, 2am under a full moon. Everybody started walking around in slow motion on the greens. Seriously man, it seemed like walking on the moon. SCUBA diving Monterey on acid was truly mind blowing.
ahaha I saw him at Burning Man, seriously. It was the end of a crazy day for me with a long shift at my camp, and just going on an adventure with someone I just met at my camp. ended up babysitting someone that had too many shrooms. I was at a camp on esplanade with a bunch of people I had just met at Hardlys, hopped on an artcar and went to the 747 to dance with. It was probably 3/4am. My back was to the entrance but I could feel someone staring at me. I turned around and there he was. Almost certain this was his acid night. I waved and he waved back and he walked away.
Can I come to Burning man with you next year?
Watching this I kept thinking Bohemian Grove
aneurysm?
Joe "I've only microdosed" Rogan
I can definitely recommend eating fruit while tripping
well you not the only one ever who has dropped acid and when you starting to "come down" you seek a calmer environment to ease the transition.
I once was on a mission, on a cruise I was wishin. That my mom was in the kitchen eating chicken, finger lickin.
Once was tripping and some generic country song came on the shitty little radio we had. But it sounded fucking amazing. Then the singer began to describe everything that was happening around me as it happened. It was nuts. That song went hard.
Joe seems like a guy who would like Wasteland more
Took acid with my best friend and meant to watch all 3 Lord of the Rings movies but we never got through the first one because we had to keep pausing it to stare at everything, especially Gandalf’s beard. I would highly recommend it.
They are still live, your quick with it lol

There is a DMV, the Department of Mutant Vehicles. One must submit plans for an art car. Then, if you are invited to bring your art car, you still must pass on-site licensing which, among other things, makes sure that your car flame effects are safe and standardized.

Acid is something, i was on it one day driving around but realised that i didn have a car
He's describing my salvia trip a decade ago!
I was at a Dead show at Rich Stadium in '93. My buddies and I split a half sheet between the five of us. Holy fuck!
We all had tripped multiple times before, but we still made the rookie mistake of eating more and more, because "they didn't seem to be working," as my buddy Jay said; famous last words lol. Next thing ya know, we were all on 10 hits a piece and it was very potent and clean shit (rainbow pyramids w wings, if my memory serves me correctly). Good lord, to this day I've never been so fucked up.
It was nearly 100° that day, not to mention we were in a parking lot. So, we bought snowcones to cool off. Logical choice, right? You'd think. I was so out of it that the concept of eating had escaped me. I ended up just throwing it on the ground, because I had no clue as what to do w it and neither did my buddies. Then we all realize -- almost simultaneously -- the trips were working overtime haha.
At this point we headed to the woods to try and regain some normalcy of the world.
Nope! We kept getting higher and higher. Then we ran into a guy w a bad eye; other than that, he was the typical middle-aged
Deadhead. He asked, "You boy's lost?" We concurred and he took us to this huge canopy that was deeper in the woods. A bunch of children were running around under the tent-like thingy. He said, "We are all on the family trip" -- inferring that the children were dosed too. It totally freaked us out and my friend lost it. Immediately, he ran full throttle in a straight line haha. He must have ran at least another mile deeper into the woods and we didn't see him until the next day. As for us, we got the fuck out of there too.
A bunch of crazy shit happened on that hot June day. What an experience. I wouldn't recommend ANYONE eat 10 hits of quality LSD, because shit gets really fucking intense at times. But I will say this, it is a journey that I defiantly don't regret.
